Apparmor must not prevent access to required helper programs. The following
helpers should be allowed to run in unconfined execution mode:
- libvirt_parthelper
- libvirt_iohelper
The network and nwfilter tests contained in the libvirt-TCK testkit can fail
unless access to raw network packets is granted. Without this access, the
following apparmor error can be seen while running the tests:
apparmor="DENIED" operation="create" parent=1 profile="/usr/sbin/libvirtd"
pid=94731 comm="libvirtd" family="packet" sock_type="raw" protocol=768
In order for apparmor to work properly in Xen environments, the following
access rights need to be allowed:
- Allow CAP_SYS_PACCT, which is required when resetting some multi-port
Broadcom cards by writting to the PCI config space
- Allow CAP_IPC_LOCK, which is required to lock/unlock memory. Without
this setting, an error 'Resource temporarily unavailable' can be seen
while attempting to mmap memory. At the same time, the following
apparmor message is seen:
apparmor="DENIED" operation="capable" parent=1 profile="/usr/sbin/libvirtd"
pid=2097 comm="libvirtd" pid=2097 comm="libvirtd" capability=14
capname="ipc_lock"
- Allow access to distribution specific directories:
/usr/{lib,lib64}/xen/bin
See lp#1276719 for the bug description. As virt-aa-helper doesn't know
the VFIO groups to use for the guest, allow access to all
/dev/vfio/[0-9]* and /dev/vfio/vfio files if there is a potential need
for vfio
